It is rather controversial among wine connoisseurs because its alcohol content varies quite substantially from one producer to another. In May 2013, the author went to a certain website, randomly selected 10 zinfandels from among the 325 available, and obtained the following values of alcohol content (%).
14.9 14.5 16.2 14.3 15.9
13.7 16.2 14.6 13.9 15.1

Kindly check explanation

B) 0.829

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

% Alcohol content of 10 zindafel wine

14.9 14.5 16.2 14.3 15.9

13.7 16.2 14.6 13.9 15.1

Sorted value : 13.7, 13.9, 14.3, 14.5, 14.6, 14.9, 15.1, 15.9, 16.2, 16.2

Range = maximum - minimum

Range = 16.1 - 13.7

n = number of samples = 10

Median = 1/4(n + 1)th term

Median = 1/4(10+1)th term = 11/4 = 2.75 th term

(14.3 + 14.5) / 2 = 28.8 /2 = 14.40

Mode = 16. 2 ( most occurring observation)

Mean(m) = (13.7 + 13.9 + 14.3 + 14.5 + 14.6 + 14.9 + 15.1 + 15.9 + 16.2 + 16.2) / 10

= 149.3 / 10

= 14.93
